Description

Technical fields:

[0001] This invention belongs to the field of office equipment technology, and particularly relates to an integrated desktop, especially a solution with a foldable monitor stand. Background technology:

[0002] With the advent of the digital age, computers have become necessities for learning and work. Besides laptops, most monitors need to be placed on a desk, taking up desk space, and the standard stand's functions are limited and cannot meet individual needs. While external monitor stands provide functionality, locking and securing them is cumbersome and requires considerable DIY skills. The improved office functions of tablets have brought convenience to lightweight office work, thus spurring the development of monitor stands.

[0003] The subject of this invention is to provide a technical solution that allows the support to be directly integrated into the tabletop. Summary of the Invention:

[0004] The purpose of this invention is to design an integrated desktop with a detachable folding bracket on the side of the table.

[0005] The technical solution of the present invention is implemented as follows: an integrated desktop, including a tabletop and a support, characterized in that: a track is fixed on the front or left and right sides of the tabletop, the support is a foldable structure, and a slider is locked on one side of the base of the support, which can be detachably and slidably positioned in the track of the tabletop by means of the slider, and the position of the support can be adjusted.

[0006] The bracket includes a base, a lower support arm, a spring arm, and a suspension assembly. The base includes two rectangular upper bottom grooves and a lower bottom groove with a locking slider. The upper and lower bottom grooves are hinged at an angle by a hinge shaft, allowing them to overlap or open to a straight position. The lower end of the lower support arm is hinged to the end of the lower bottom groove, and a transition seat is positioned at the top via a vertical axis. This transition seat is oriented relative to the lower support arm. The connecting seat of the spring arm is positioned on the transition seat via a horizontal axis. The suspension assembly is adjustable between the working angle and the upright angle. It includes a cross axle seat, an axle lug, and a foldable X-shaped mounting plate that can be connected to the suspension seat in the spring arm. The central axis of the X-shaped mounting plate is positioned on the axle lug, and the axle lug is hinged to the cross axle seat. After folding, the X-shaped mounting plate is approximately the same width as the spring arm and can be folded and swung to the top surface of the spring arm. The spring arm is adjusted to be upright and forms a straight strip with the lower support arm. It can swing with the lower support arm to be stored in the cavity formed by the upper and lower bottom grooves, which are open and flat.

[0007] The lower bottom groove and the lower support arm are provided with holes and ball-head plungers at the corresponding folding positions. The connecting seat and the adapter seat in the spring arm are provided with holes and ball-head plungers at the corresponding working state and upright angle positions. The lower support arm is provided with gaskets on both sides at the hinge point with the lower bottom groove.

[0008] The upper and lower bottom grooves overlap and are positioned in place. A movable end cap is provided at the hinge end. Both sides of the movable end cap are provided with convex shafts. The upper end is positioned in the shaft hole of the upper bottom groove through the convex shaft, and the lower end is slidably positioned in the slide groove of the lower bottom groove through the convex shaft. During the opening or overlapping operation, the lower end of the movable end cap can move along the slide groove direction with the convex shaft.

[0009] The lower support arm and the lower bottom groove are respectively provided with stepped parts at their hinge ends. When the lower support arm is opened to the full position, the two stepped parts just abut together to form an opening limit. The upper bottom groove overlaps the lower bottom groove, and its end abuts against the side of the lower support arm when it is opened to the full position to form a limit.

[0010] The front end of the spring arm is provided with a recessed area for storing the X-shaped hanging plate. A T-shaped locking piece is slidably disposed in the step gap formed between the recessed area and the top surface. The T-head of the T-shaped locking piece is wider than the width of the spring arm and can swing together with the spring arm into the upper bottom groove cavity. When the T-shaped locking piece slides forward, the T-head can enter the L-shaped grooves reserved on both sides of the upper bottom groove to form a lock.

[0011] This invention features a unique design, simple structure, and convenient use. Tracks are fixed to the front or left and right sides of the tabletop, allowing for the detachable installation and positioning of the bracket. The matching bracket has a foldable structure, keeping the tabletop flat when folded, without taking up space or being obtrusive. When opened, the bracket can stand upright on the tabletop, providing a hanging display or tablet computer with adjustable orientation and tilt to meet the optimal usage angle without taking up tabletop space.

[0036] Reference Figure 1 , Figure 2 and Figure 3The integrated desktop includes a support 100 and a tabletop 200. The tabletop 200 has a track 201 fixed to its front or left / right sides. The support 100 is foldable, and its base 1 has a slider 300 locked on one side. The slider 300 allows for detachable sliding positioning within the track 201 on the tabletop, and also allows for position adjustment of the support 100. The track 201 is secured to one edge of the tabletop 200 using fasteners such as set screws 202, as shown on the front edge, or possibly on the left edge. It can be easily installed and removed as needed, meeting both emergency and regular usage requirements.

[0037] Reference Figures 4 to 10 The configured bracket 100 is a foldable design, and importantly, it can be folded into a strip so that it can be stored on the edge of the table without looking out of place.

[0038] The bracket 100 includes a base 1, a lower support arm 2, a spring arm 3, and a suspension assembly 4. The base 1 includes two rectangular upper bottom grooves 11 and lower bottom grooves 12. The upper bottom grooves 11 and lower bottom grooves 12 are hinged at an angle by a hinge pin 7. The two grooves can overlap around the hinge pin 7 or open to a flat state to form a complete cavity with storage.

[0039] The upper bottom groove 11 and the lower bottom groove 12 overlap, meaning the upper bottom groove 11 can rotate around the axis to be on top of the lower bottom groove 12, forming an overlapping state. At this time, the two hinged ends are open, and a movable end cap 13 is provided at the hinged end. Both sides of the movable end cap 13 are provided with convex shafts 131. The upper end is positioned in the shaft hole of the upper bottom groove 11 by the convex shaft 131, and the lower end is slidably positioned in the slide groove 121 of the lower bottom groove 12 by the convex shaft 131. During the opening or overlapping operation, the lower end of the movable end cap 13 can move along the slide groove 121 with the convex shaft 131. When overlapping, it seals the opening; when opened into a strip shape, it can fit snugly on the inner surface of the lower bottom groove 12. Furthermore, a fixing hole 122 is provided on the side of the lower bottom groove 12 to lock the slider 300, providing convenience for installation.

[0040] The lower end of the lower support arm 2 is hinged to the end of the lower bottom groove 12, and the top is positioned by a vertical shaft 51 with an adapter seat 5. The adapter seat 5 can be adjusted relative to the lower support arm 2.

[0041] The spring arm 3 is a four-bar linkage mechanism, including a connecting seat 31, a suspension seat 32, an upper cantilever 33, and a lower cantilever 34. The middle hinge points are hinged by hinge shafts to form a pitch-adjustable structure. The connecting seat 31 in the spring arm 3 is positioned on the adapter seat 5 by a horizontal shaft 52 and can be adjusted between the working angle and the upright angle. The upright angle refers to standing upright on the top of the lower support arm 2, forming a straight strip with the lower support arm 2, so as to achieve folding and storage.

[0042] The suspension assembly 4 includes a cross axle seat 41, an axle lug 42, and a foldable X-shaped hanging plate 43. The central axis of the X-shaped hanging plate 43 is positioned on the axle lug 42, which is then hinged to the cross axle seat 41. Finally, it is connected to the suspension seat 32 in the spring arm via the cross axle seat 41. After folding, the X-shaped hanging plate 43 is about the same width as the spring arm 3 and can be folded and swung to the top surface of the spring arm 3 to form a close-fitting folded state. The spring arm 3 can be adjusted to stand upright and form a straight strip with the lower support arm 2, and can swing with the lower support arm 2 to be stored in the cavity formed by the upper bottom groove 11 and the lower bottom groove 12, which are open and flat. In other words, the base 1 can be used as a storage box.

[0043] Furthermore, a hole 21 and a ball-head plunger 6 are provided at the corresponding folding position between the lower bottom groove 12 and the lower support arm 2, such as... Figure 5 Hole 21 is located on one side of the lower support arm 2, and ball plunger 6 is installed on one side of the lower bottom groove 12. The cooperation between hole 21 and ball plunger 6 corresponds to the lower support arm 2 folding down to be parallel with the lower bottom groove 12, maintaining stability in the folded state. Gaskets 22 are provided on both sides of the hinge point between the lower support arm 2 and the lower bottom groove 12, serving two purposes: lubrication and providing clearance during folding. Hole 21 and ball plunger 6 are also provided between the connecting seat 31 and the adapter seat 5 in the spring arm 3, corresponding to the working state and upright angle position. In the figure, two holes 31 are located on one side of the adapter seat 5, while the ball plunger 6 is located in the hole of the connecting seat 31 to ensure the stability of the angle of the spring arm 3 in the working state. The aforementioned holes 21 and ball plunger 6 are symmetrically arranged on both sides to enhance the reliability of positioning.

[0044] like Figure 4 , Figure 5 and Figure 8 The lower support arm 2 and the lower bottom groove 12 are respectively provided with stepped portions 23 at their hinge ends. When the lower support arm 2 is opened to the full extent, the two stepped portions 23 just abut together to form an opening limit. The upper bottom groove 11 overlaps the lower bottom groove 12, and its end abuts against the side of the lower support arm 2 when it is opened to the full extent to form a limit. In other words, when the lower support arm 2 is opened to the full extent, it is constrained in both directions, maintaining a stable upright state and preventing it from swaying left and right.

[0045] like Figures 7 to 10 The front end of the spring arm 3 is provided with a recessed area 331 for storing the X-shaped hanging plate 43. A T-shaped locking piece 35 is slidably disposed in the step gap 332 formed between the recessed area 331 and the top surface. The T-head 351 of the T-shaped locking piece is wider than the width of the spring arm 3 and can swing together with the spring arm 3 into the cavity of the upper bottom groove 11. When the T-shaped locking piece 35 slides forward, the T-head 351 can enter the L-shaped grooves 111 reserved on both sides of the upper bottom groove 11 to form a lock. When stored in place, it will not easily fall out of the upper bottom groove 11.
